(http://www.christianweek.org)TORONTO, ON - Crossroads Television System (CTS) has dropped Charles McVety's “Word TV" program.
CTS cancelled the program after the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council (CBSC) found the station had violated broadcast codes for statements made by McVety, president of Canada Christian College, about Toronto's gay pride parade and Ontario's proposed sex education curriculum.
The CBSC ruled that while McVety had the right to publicly “object" to homosexuality and call it sinful, some of his specific comments had misstated or misrepresented facts.
ChristianWeek attempted to contact McVety but he was unavailable for comment.
McVety responded to the CBSC ruling through the media, commenting, “I don't know how they want me to talk. I thought I lived in a free, democratic country and that political censorship was reserved for totalitarian regimes."
